C'mon Burnley. Out in Heanor tonight so would love the 3 points.
Couldn't help but wind them up after last Wednesday night's defeat from the jaws of victory.

Locals down here reckon on that Notts Forrest aren't playing well that the moment.

Same setup as against Liverpool?. Seems a little on the negative side IMO.

Hopefully I am wrong and he has tweaked it for this one.

I hope we are not going to park the bus again . It worked to some extent against Liverpool but would like to see us have a go at this lot .

The best goalscorer we will ever have in the Premier League and what a bargain he was,so underrated.

Afternoon all from a very warm 29c Belgrade, it's večiti derbi or eternal derby day here with our heroes in red and white travelling across the park to Partizan. I'm watching the first half of our game at home and then a minivan will whisk us to a nice pub in the city where serious beer drinking will commence whilst watching the second half of our game on a big screen before going to the game. Huge day this feel we need to be beating Forest. Come on you mighty Clarets.

Very defensive team. Can't see any creativity in the middle. Hopefully Parker has something up his sleeve. Got to go for more than a point against these at home at the outset

Can see Edwards coming off the bench if we are drawing to try and create a chance or two. UTC..

Afternoon, Clarets around The World, from some sodden, grey, chilly hills.
No more late pens against. Woody to have a day to forget.
Three points with a home win.

C9ME ON UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU CLARETS!!!

He'd have surely gone 5 at the back if he was aiming for a point. That would have been very defensive.

Barnes on the bench instead of Tresor should be a criminal offence...

It depends on what Laurent's role is. Is he playing the more advanced role that Hannibal played or is he in the back line again like against Liverpool.

Just a bit surprised that a player like Laurent, who wasn’t a starter in the Championship, is starting today.

I hope you're right but still don't see where the creativity in the middle comes from

Yep, Laurent in back line.

Come on you clarets.

We're not great at starting games. The chances we've conceded in the opening 10-20 minutes, even against Sunderland is shocking. It takes us 45 minutes to wake up.

Again from a set piece the defending is awful you can't get away with it in the Premier league..

We've been crap at set pieces in defense so far this season but have got away with it until today. Zonal marking is sh!t and our getting out to close the second ball down has been sh!t !
